Development Of A Catalytic Membrane Reactor For The Production Of Ethylene Using Oxidative Coupling Of Methane (Oem)

A catalytic membrane reactor resembles shell and tube heat exchanger integrated with a tubular ceramic membrane was developed for the application in oxidative coupling of methane (OCM) reaction. A 3-components catalyst system (Na-W-Mn/Si02) was used to study the OCM reaction in a packed bed catal...
